| Abstract [eng] |
The complexity of legal language and decisions of the Constitucional Court of the Republic of Lithuania and established principles such as legitimate expectations and general principles of justice, reasonableness and integrity presuppose the necessity to create conditions not only for the protection of their rights and legitimate interests under the Constitution of the Republic of Lithuania, but also clearly, without changing the constitutional doctrine, explain the essence of rulings, conclusions and decisions adopted by the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Lithuania. Namely, the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Lithuania is an official interpreter of the Constitution, which has the right to interpret its own acts ex officio or following the requests of other interested persons. Although the interpretation of final acts of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Lithuania is carried out in cases where there is a doubt concerning the meaning of the provisions of the relevant final act without changing the content of the final acts Constitutional Court often interprets final acts too extensively. For this reason, this paper analyses the essence and the purpose of the of the interpretation of the final acts of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Lithuania, as well as points to the explanations of final acts of the Constitutional Court and their breadth, analyzes whether relevant explanations of final acts should be considered as being unsatisfactory, i.e. whether they are adjustments of the constitutional doctrine on interpretation of the final acts of the Constitutional Court. |
